Inspiring Discovery

UBC Let's Talk Science strives to improve science, technology, engineering and mathematics literacy through the outreach efforts of members of the research community at the University of British Columbia. Our volunteers work with youth from elementary and secondary schools to ignite science excitement and share their knowledge with eager young minds.

Straw Bridges

Designing bridges combines skills in mathematics, engineering, and business. In this activity, students will design their own bridges, figure out how much it costs to build them, and put their designs to the test!
